About Biodance (Biodanza) and what to expect

Biodanza is good for the body, good for the soul and good for the mind. It’s all round benefits have been proven overand over again both scientifically and empirically . It truly can change people’s lives for the better. It can improveconfidence, self esteem, capacity for enjoyment and the capacity to give and receive love in its purest form.It doesn’t matter if you can’t dance, it doesn’t matter if you think you don’t have a sense of rhythm, it doesn’t matterif you can’t move much, you can move at your own pace and at your own level. Biodanza is about the enjoyment ofmovement and dance, it’s about self-expression, authenticity, connection with yourself and connection with othersin a fun but meaningful way.Wear what you feel comfortable in. It is usually danced in bare feet but non slippery socks or soft indoor shoes willbe ok. You might need to bring a bottle of water with you.I believe that Rolando Toro who created this system was a genius. He was nominated for a Nobel Peace prize for thiswork.

About Ingrid

Biodanza brings everything I love into one thing. I love, people, teaching, spirituality, music, dancing and therapy. Ilove to see people being happy and being authentic (which Biodanza encourages) and to think that I can in some wayhelp them to achieve this happier state.I was a teacher for many years and have been a counselling psychologist for much longer, I had the privilege topractice and then co-author a book on ‘Teaching Meditation to Children’. I am a Reikki Master and have loved musicand dancing all my life.I trained to teach Biodanza for four years and have trained further to be a didactic teacher (able to train others tobecome teachers ). Running Biodanza groups for over six years I have delighted in presenting this wonderful systemat festivals and other events.I have also worked with Brain injury patients and am currently working with people with different challenges, as wellas my usual more general groups. Any profit goes to charity.
